We're pathologically social. We're professional leisurists. We're burrito lovers, bar flies, art whores and music nerds. We dish the good dirt, and we'll risk a parking ticket for a cheap sample sale. Sometimes, we blog drunk.

The quotable bartender

I certainly don’t make cocktails as well as well as I drink them, so I appreciated this overheard advice from the bartender at Bar Marmont last night. 

"The secret to a good cocktail is to shake it like it done something wrong to you."

If anyone would know, it'd be him. Bar Marmont serves the best classic cocktails, especially the (ice cold) Pimm’s Cup.
